Well, that would be the idea. Maybe not recommended, but currently you can still use the 4.0.x groovy-servlet jar with Groovy 5. At least for Groovy servlets with a simple Jetty server test I just tried.
You certainly wouldn't want both the 4 and 5 groovy-servlet jars in your classpath/modulepath and perhaps there might be reasons later to not allow mixing those versions. Cheers, Paul.
